X-Hoosier Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 I got a big smile that you like the Calipari idea. Every basketball person I follow on Twitter thought it was a ridiculous idea and mocked him. I didn't read the whole thing so I can't weigh in fully but it certainly sounds like a gimmick. Calipari loves gimmicks. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners A bit of a gimmick but an interesting one. I'm just one person who hates the idea of conference tourneys because of what they stand for.

But instead make it a big New Years event. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BtownBanners mobile app The biggest problem in this is that Bama/pUKe fans won't know which way to turn their jacket.

Walking Boot of Doom Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 If the SEC wants to increase its popularity, they should focus on improving the quality of their programs, not some gimmicky preseason tournament. ALASKA HOOSIER, Hoosiers219 and theriverpilot 3 Quote

TheWatShot Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 On June 1, 2016 at 7:21 PM, Hoosiers219 said: Soooo...Bleacher Report has IU at #14, Purdue #13, MSU at 11 and Wisky at 10. I understand that these are early rankings and the difference is only five spots, but was a bit taken back by Purdue and MSU rated higher than our Hoosiers. Purdont has talent, but don't we have more? MSU might warrant a high ranking later in the year, but MSU is YOUNG and historically is far better in March. How much of Wisconsin's rating is based on their strong showing at The Dance? In long, is it unrealistic to see IU as the team to beat in conference with a question mark at PG? I think the margin is slim, but barring major injury the Hoosiers should be right there in the B1G Champ convo, high seed in the NCAA and sights set on no less than an elite 8. Too high of expectations for our squad? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Why is Purdue so high? They weren't ranked that high for most of last season and they're losing more than they're bringing in. Quote
Stuhoo Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 Why is Purdue so high? They weren't ranked that high for most of last season and they're losing more than they're bringing in. Cause it's Bleacher Report? HoosierAloha, Hoosiers219, Parakeet Jones and 1 other 4 Quote

The president "resigned" and the BoT booted or "realigned." I didn't think slick rick would have to worry about his job but after this shakeup I wouldn't be surprised if he jumps at an opportunity if presented to him.

Uspshoosier Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 @franfrascilla Only 27% of high school Top 100 over the last 15 years has played in the NBA. Some players stop working & some misevaluated.

Alford Bailey Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 That stat probably shouldn't surprise us when you factor in a flawed AAU system and the fact that many of these kids are told how great they are starting in elementary. On the other hand I can't blame a kid for deciding to stop working on his game when it literally becomes these kids whole life. ALASKA HOOSIER and HoosierAloha 2 Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 We've had discussion about the possibility of the B1G abandoning ESPN for FoxSports but I'll be darned if I can find what thread those discussions were in. In any event, ESPN will still be a provider but to a lesser extent. Details at: http://www.insidethehall.com/2016/06/20/report-espn-keeping-half-big-ten-rights-package/ Then saw a tweet from Sean Callahan, publisher of HuskerOnline.com and also covers Nebraska sports for radio and TV out of Omaha. " Chew on this....Northwestern and Rutgers will be pulling in more revenue on a yearly basis than Notre Dame and Texas on the next TV deal." To which Rabjohns replied. "The Big Ten is a financial powerhouse." Some may not be happy that Fox is getting part of the broadcast rights, but there's a whole lot of money headed IU's way and $$ make the world go 'round.
